To Be Nothing

General reaction to any of the Nay Sayers views- No offense/No abuse is meant

As a citizen of a free nation I have the constitutional right to speak freely; which is what I had done on Aprill 20,2007. But someone found my words offensive and my post was deleted, and I was censored. So here is a more generic, sanitized, more "PC" revision that contains only what was meant as praise for Byron Miller.

While "Night" may not be a prime example of stellar celluloid, at least give credit where credit is due; Mr. Miller could've been like so many wannabe filmmakers and sat around and talked, and talked, and talked about making a movie. Instead, he got off his butt and had the balls to follow through, despite all of the adversity. The film's, so called, cheap look was not the result of any lack of talent, it was the lack of money. Byron is, in my opinion, a true artist who created something from, for all intents and purposes, nothing. I'd like to see the Nay Sayers who feel it's necessary to tear apart anyone else's creative efforts do better on their first outing. Many a first film is hard to watch by some. Too many people, who have no true idea what when into making this movie, or any movie for that matter, are far to quick to criticize. While the Nay Sayers may be correct about the cast and crew being comprised of friends and family; these Nay Sayers need to realize that many of those friends and family are, in fact, entertainment industry professionals, as well. Read the cast and crew profiles on IMDb.com and see for yourselves. I,myself, worked on "Night" and I have been a working professional in the entertainment industry for many years. "Night" was produced in association with my production company, Glass Asylum Productions, LLC; and I designed and created all of the effects. If studying Make Up Effects under the greatest living make up artist, Dick Smith; being a member of the Universal Orlando Prosthetics Department, and having 6 films (4 for make up) to my credit, makes me an amateur, then I guess I am.

Many of the professionals involved did so, not because we were expecting to make the next Academy Award winning "Best Picture" film, we did it because we saw something special in what Byron Miller was trying to achieve. We saw his talent, that many were and are blind to, and we believed in his unique vision. Always keep in mind that what you set out to create, and what you end up creating are rarely the same thing, be it due to creative differences, lack of budget, etc.

We, with Byron at the helm, decided we were gonna make this movie, even if it meant doing it on our own. That's exactly what we did; we weren't gonna be a bunch of whiny babies sitting around crying that we didn't have any backers. We said "F*ck it, let's do it ourselves!" Ya know what, we did just that and it's out there!

All My Best, Daniel H Ingraham; Executive Producer, Glass Asylum Productions
